First time trying Armbian on my N2. I know N2 is very picky with HDMI cables, I tried a bunch of HDMI cables and couldn't make it work thru any my HDMI switches(1080p). I had to connect it directly to the HDMI ports on my TV to get video signal. My Samsung TV is a 65inch 4k capable of handling 1080p resolutions with my other arm64 devices(C4, Rpi4, Rockpro64 and N2+) without any issues. Unfortunately, despite of setting resolution to 1080p60(setenv hdmimode "1080p60hz"), disabling auto detection(setenv display_autodetect "false") and setting HDP=true(setenv disablehpd "true") on boot.ini, it keeps ignoring these settings. Just to make sure, I edited both "boot.ini" under /boot/ and /usr/share/armbian directories.
My problem is, it defaults to 4K resolution which is painfully small for my eyes. I need 1080p 60hz.
Also, trying to follow instructions from:
https://www.armbian.com/odroid-n2/
where it says:
"How to change screen resolution?
armbian-config -> system -> Display (Set the display resolution)"
Just to realized armbian-config does NOT have this option anymore.
I tried with RandR also without success because the only detected resolution is: 3840 x 2160
Obviously, since there's No HW, I couldn't adjust display resolution on XFCE Desktop under display settings either. The only available resolution was: 3840 x 2160
Version I tried:
Focal desktop stable 5.6.y 715Mb 2020-06-15
Booting from uSD w/ Sandisk Extreme 32Gb flashed via etcher.
I flashed it 3 times just to make sure. Tried w/ 2 different brands of new microsd cards as well. A Sandisk Extreme and Sandisk extreme pro, both 32gb & A1 Class.
I also tried another Sony 4K 55 TV with the same results. Both of my TV's work just fine on my N2 4Gb with 64bit Ubuntu 20.04 w/ 5.7 kernel running Gnome/Wayland at 1080p resolution.
Why is it ignoring boot.ini settings? is there some other file I need to change to?
